Early in the morning on Christmas Eve, the police and fire brigade reported that a residential building was completely burnt down on Frei in Kristiansund. At 08:06, the police informed news that the fire service had the fire under control, and that there was no longer any danger of it spreading. About fifteen minutes later, the flames flared up again. Just before 0830, news’s reporter on the scene reports that water is being poured on the neighboring houses and that the flames are still visible. The police confirm that the fire service is struggling with the supply of water for extinguishing. – As I have heard from the fire service, the fire took off again. Now there is a risk of spreading to neighboring houses. Now there are three houses that have been evacuated, a total of six people, says operations manager at the police Roar Fylling. The fire service reports that they now have the flames under control. Photo: Eirik Haukenes / news Both people who live in the burning house got out before the emergency services arrived. The neighboring house was evacuated early. The residents were only allowed to enter when the fire brigade had control, but were evacuated only when the flames took off. The fire service is working to extinguish the fire, but the house is completely damaged. Those who lived in the now burning house have somewhere to go, says Fylling. Otherwise, they have notified the municipality’s crisis team. Only one house is said to have been damaged in the fire, despite the fact that there was previously a risk of it spreading. That danger will now be over. Also a fire in Troms There was also a fire in Troms in the early hours of Christmas Eve.
